If it was me id offer the food then if refused lo would get down and wait till next meal. No snacks inbetween!!!

If its not food but highchair hatered may try getting a booster and eating at a big table. Or even just on the kitchen floor

hi thx for the reply i do think it might be the high chair... we have a booster seat but no table as im living with the inlaws and have my own living room but not big enough for a table and she wont sit still and eat her food out of the highchair xx
